I joined Enactus only weeks before I witnessed my fellow members take the stage at Nationals where I was blown away by the dedication, integrity and passion they have for their projects. Working with Enactus has been a truly inspiring experience. Being able to enhance and apply the knowledge, skills and abilities that I have acquired through my education, to real world projects that work towards the betterment of our community is invaluable to me. Enactus is consistently pushing me to expand my horizons and think outside the box – something that admittedly does not come naturally to me. I am grateful and proud to be a part of such a hardworking and innovative team. I believe that every day presents an opportunity to learn something new and that these opportunities must be seized. My time with Enactus cannot be described as anything other than a learning experience.
